If I were to have spent that much effort on reference setup, my final would have looked a lot more like the photo; only because there&#39;s so much good stuff in there to use. It amazes me how you&#39;re willing to deviate from the research to make the painting how you want to, vs. how the reference is dictating.Aaron Beckerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00397377900326640776noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2999230124118604245.post-76975043645286751712013-08-04T14:39:04.463-04:002013-08-04T14:39:04.463-04:00Reminds me of Maxfield Parrish&#39;s reference con...Reminds me of Maxfield Parrish&#39;s reference constructions, especially the mirror/lake idea.
